    stepper would be a better option…(according to my view)

    use Car window DC motor 12 volt along with shaft encoders this will give you more torque and momentum

    Q: faheemawan…

    what is the use of tht that motor…

    you want torque.. go for higher torque DC stepper motor..

    and if you go for shaft encoding system that will be a bit complex… and if you take stepper then there will be no need of encoding part.. and if you want more precise kind then go for servo…

     

    if you have better shat encoding idea which you have implemented… share among us….

    It’s a simple solution, i used it in one of my project. U can use DC motor along with shaft encoders attached via circular gears. its an alternate mathod of stepper motor and its also very cost effective. it is not complex at all …. try it

    can or elobrate your shaft encoding method… send some picks of shasft encoding method..
